Back story: Nolan grew up as an orphan, and like many others in his position, he took up thievery and con-artistry to survive. From a young age Nolan fed and clothed himself by selling his ill-gotten loot to those with underworld connections. As he grew older, he became part of a small tight-knit group of pickpockets, thieves and con artists, each one uncompromisingly loyal to the rest. By the time Nolan was 16, his new-found family was not only self-sufficient, but their collective ability to acquire seemingly any item began to gather notoriety. And value. For the next decade, The Orphans sold their skills to the highest bidder, becoming known for their ruthless efficiency, their avoidance of unnecessary bloodshed, and insane appetite for risk, while completely keeping their identities secret.
The story of the MPD's crackdown on the Orphans in unclear in it's genesis; because of their clandestine nature, the source of the MPD's aggression towards this particular group of thieves can't be traced to a single job or heist. The MPD very rarely showed interest in the criminal enterprises of those outside their territory, and a few missing rations from a supply convoy had never precipitated more than increased security. This made the discovery of the desecrated corpses of several Orphans in a Hart's Mill cellar, each clearly branded with a crude "MPD" seared into their flesh, all the more frightening. Over a few weeks, the Rivertown underground discovered 11 dead Orphans, all brutally beaten and marked the same way.
Nolan's escape from the MPD was narrow, and because of the anonymous nature of the Orphans, he was able to disappear, letting his reputation die with his brothers. Without support, without direction, Nolan became a common (though exceptional) black marketeer, trusting no one and avoiding the MPD at all costs.
